“…Injections, already described above as being part of the diagnostic process, can also function in a therapeutic capacity, serving as a causative treatment that directly targets and mitigates the origin of pain [ 90 ]. Epidural steroid injections and/or nerve blocks can be used to target specific sources of pain, and reduce inflammation [ 91 ], in addition to the already mentioned diagnostic information. Alternative forms of injection therapies may also be explored for treatment purposes.…”

The introduction of the term Persistent Spinal Pain Syndrome (PSPS-T1/2), replacing the older term Failed Back Surgery Syndrome (FBSS), has significantly influenced our approach to diagnosing and treating post-surgical spinal pain. This comprehensive review discusses this change and its effects on patient care. Various diagnostic methods are employed to elucidate the underlying causes of back pain, and this information is critical in guiding treatment decisions. The management of PSPS-T1/2 involves both causative treatments, which directly address the root cause of pain, and symptomatic treatments, which focus on managing the symptoms of pain and improving overall function. The importance of a multidisciplinary and holistic approach is emphasized in the treatment of PSPS-T1/2. This approach is patient-centered and treatment plans are customized to individual patient needs and circumstances. The review concludes with a reflection on the impact of the new PSPS nomenclature on the perception and management of post-surgical spinal pain.
